California SB 708 smog bill email address

You can email Senator Florez regarding this bill at:

senator.florez@sen.ca.gov

Besides mentioning your concerns, I'd also mention the car club(s) you are a member of.

I'd certainly also like to know what standards they intend to apply to my 62 356 Cab...when no standards existed back in 62.....I've asked, but no reply yet.....

By the way...the SB 708 concern was posted on the 356 Registry "talk list" a few days ago, along with Senator Florez's email address.....several "posters" forwarded the email to other car clubs (encouraged here as well...).

Supposedly someone received an email from Senator Florez's office (a person named Dean), saying that the Senator's office had received a flood of emails from concerned vintage/collector car owners...and this person said that they were going to "re-word" the bill (is that possible?), and address collector cars.

I would hardly consider this to be a done deal, and would encourage all to email the Senator.

regards,
Eric

I just wrote to my senator (Machado, Democrat, district 5) and notice he is on the "Air Quality in the Central Valley" Select Committee.

Guess who chairs the committee?

Thaaaat's right...Florez, the author of this money-grubbing bill.

Is there any hope?

This has been a topic....here...and on a few other boards. CARB gets some idjut legislator to propose the the amendment every couple of months.....seems it's a payback system up there...go figure.

Fortunately for us they mostly (the bill) get killed in commitee. Some HAVE made it to the floor and get nailed there......

This does NOT mean that you should not contact the idjut author or YOUR local rep and display your displeasure.........it seems that CARB wants to throw enuff****skitski up against the wall to see if some will stick....

I haven't heard back from Florez or Machado.
